Half an hour later.
In the huge office, Sherri Leng had been sent to the lounge. Theo Gu's assistant gave her an injection and hung up the drip. She was still asleep.
Outside the lounge, Elliot Mo sat behind Theo's desk. In front of him were Theo and another man.
This man was also very handsome and looked very lively. He looked at Elliot with teasing and questioning in his eyes. He's Ken Qin, the other brother of Elliot.
Elliot's face was cold, unaffected at all by the gazes of those two.
"Elliot, you got married in secret? How could that be? What about me?"
With a frown, Ken looked at Elliot with an unemotional look, and his eyes were full of excitement to hear the gossip.
Theo continued, "That's right, you've only seen this woman for a few times, let alone a woman abandoned by her family. Why did you marry her?"
Hearing Theo's words, Elliot suddenly raised his eyes, with a gleam shining in them. He said coldly, "what? Can't I marry her after she got abandoned by her family?"
Theo went blank for a moment and said, "that's not what I meant. The thing is that you should have prevented against this woman getting close to you."
Elliot's eyes paused slightly, as if he was thinking about something. After a long time, he said lightly, "I approached her first."
Bang!
His words were like a loud thunder, which stirred up a huge storm in the hearts of Ken and Theo. The two of them looked at Elliot in disbelief, at the men who got all the women in city A to love him as to lose their minds.
In this one day, he told them that it was him who took the initiative to approach a woman, and a woman who had lost everything.
"Bro, are you out of your mind?"
Ken still couldn't believe that it was a saying from his brother. He frowned and moved closer to him with his mouth slightly open and his eyes opened widely.
Theo, on the other hand, was not as shocked as Ken. He stood still, looked towards Elliot, and after a long time he said slowly: "Does master Mo know about this?"
"Not yet." said Elliot lightly.
Ken stood up and sighed. He looked at his brother sympathetically and said, "bro, you're screwed. Once master Mo discovers that you married a woman so casually, he will break your legs."
Thinking of master Mo with his grave and dignified bearing, Ken unnoticeably felt a chill on his neck and back.
Theo continued to ask, "when are you going to announce to the public?"
Elliot had already stood up. Hearing Theo's words, he thought for a second and quickly replied, "I'm not planning for that to happen just now, It won't be too late to announce it when she can fully accepts it."
No way.
With a scream in his heart, Ken turned around and looked at Theo. He didn't know what was this women had that attracted him so much. After all these years, no girls could have approached him, let alone his brother being so considerate for a woman.
Thinking of this, Ken became more and more curious about Sherri. He looked at his brother and said with a smile, "Elliot, so you mean that I have a sister-in-law now?"
When Elliot was about to turn around and walk towards the lounge, he stopped and didn't turn around. Instead, he turned his back towards Ken and said softly and slowly, "that depends on whether she accepts you."
